Sujet: [tails-news] Tails 2.0.1 is out
This release fixes [numerous security issues](https://tails.boum.org/security/Numerous_security_holes_in_2.0/index.en.html). All users must upgrade as soon as possible.

# Changes

## New features

* Tails now uses the GNOME Shell desktop environment, in its Classic mode. GNOME Shell provides a modern, simple, and actively developed desktop environment. The Classic mode keeps the traditional Applications, Places menu, and windows list. Accessibility and non-Latin input sources are also better integrated.

To find your way around, [read our introduction to GNOME and the Tails desktop.](https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/introduction_to_gnome_and_the_tails_desktop/index.en.html)

## Upgrades and changes

* Debian 8 upgrades most included software, for example:

    * Many core GNOME utilities from 3.4 to 3.14: Files, Disks, Videos, etc.
    * LibreOffice from 3.5 to 4.3
    * PiTiVi from 0.15 to 0.93
    * Git from 1.7.10 to 2.1.4
    * Poedit from 1.5.4 to 1.6.10
    * Liferea from 1.8.6 to 1.10
  * Update Tor Browser to 5.5 (based on Firefox 38.6.0 ESR):


    * Add Japanese support.
  * Remove the Windows camouflage which is currently broken in GNOME Shell. We started working on [adding it back](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/10830) but [your help is needed](https://tails.boum.org/news/windows_camouflage_jessie/index.en.html)!


* Change to `systemd` as init system and use it to:

    * Sandbox many services using Linux namespaces and make them harder to exploit.
    * Make the launching of Tor and the memory wipe on shutdown more robust.
    * Sanitize our code base by replacing many custom scripts.
  * Update most firmware packages which might improve hardware compatibility.


* Notify the user if Tails is running from a non-free virtualization software.

* Remove Claws Mail, replaced by [Icedove](https://tails.boum.org/doc/anonymous_internet/icedove/index.en.html), a rebranded version of Mozilla Thunderbird.

## Fixed problems

* HiDPI displays are better supported. ([#8659](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/8659))

* Remove the option to open a download with an external application in Tor Browser as this is usually impossible due to the AppArmor confinement. ([#9285](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/9285))

* Close Vidalia before restarting Tor.

* Allow Videos to access the DVD drive. ([#10455](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/10455), [#9990](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/9990))

* Allow configuring printers without administration password. ([#8443](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/8443))
